    AN / 16 = Inches (of inner diameter). And don't worry about the (-) sign.

    So -4AN = 4 / 16 = 1/4" ID hose. (y)

    I just learned that millwork guys also have dimensional terms. I was saying "why can't they just say 2" instead of 8 quarter (8/4)"?! I was really square when I heard the guy say 4 quarter :16suspect.

    Replaced the original glass runs on both doors of the Comet. Spent about 3 hours on it. Had to rattle can the inside of the doors because of a little rust. Overall a fun afternoon messin' with my car. Now I can go to the car wash without getting the seats soaked:yahoo:

    Sand blasted and rust proofed various small parts. Experimented with stripping paint.
